In reply to: Import parent and child relationships
You can use the standard WordPress import and export tool, no need for a bbPress to bbPress importer
In reply to: Topics not found, only sticky topics show@jkw217, You do not have the exact same problem, please add some more information to the post I’ve just made here https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/import-parent-and-child-relationships/
p.s. Please create your own topics in future instead of replying to other topics, 99.9999% of the time your import issues will be different to that of someone else’s, if you need to you can link o other topics as a reference and say it is “similar to xyz”
In reply to: Import parent and child relationshipsIn reply to: AMP not working with bbPress Permalinks with ID@korobochkin have you tried using AMP at all with your permalinks id plugin?
In reply to: GDPR EU legislationTo be honest I’ve only just started thinking about it.
We should probably start with a Trac ticket, then start discussing it in Slack
In reply to: Importing from Rainmaker; Topics’ post_parent = 0Thanks for the update, it was worth a try š
Are you getting the correct
post_parentnow with those changes you’ve made?The notes I added in reply to @liderxlt above I’m pretty sure will get that sorted for @liderxlt
I’m happy to look at any raw data or datebase dumps you have Mike, maybe a forum and/or topic WXR dump like that of which @liderxlt posted.
In reply to: Does bbPress work with Windows Server 2008 r2?Awesome glad that worked (I removed the previous reply as it was spam)
In reply to: bbPress Post Via MailThis plugin supports posting to bbPress by email https://github.com/rmccue/falcon
It’s out of date and needs some testing and reporting what does and doesn’t work
If anyone could help with the I could help get any code changes required added š
In reply to: Create custom emails from bbPressI think it should still work, if there are any issues ping me here and I’ll take a look.
In reply to: Hold topicIf you want that functionality you will need to modify the plugin I linked to, you could set it so that it is only enabled on specific forums, or specific topics, that’s up to you.
It is not a bug in bbPress, it is by design, just as you can install plugins for WordPress, in this case, bbPress, you can install and customise bbPress by further installing bbPress plugins, it allows for the flexibility of each user to customise bbPress to their personal needs without imposing on others who do not want that functionality.
In reply to: Topic Title Maximum Length and Inspect Element ToolThanks š
In reply to: Topic Title Maximum Length and Inspect Element ToolHmmm, I think we should explore this a little closer, would you mind creating a ticket on our ticket tracker Trac?
bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket
In reply to: Hold topicThis is by design if you install and activate the following plugin should do what you’re after
In reply to: Vanilla Forums Importer needs thisApologies for the late reply, there hasn’t been many requests to update the Vanilla importer, what I’ve done with most importers is when asked I’ll update it to the latest, in this case I’d checkout what the latest 2.x version is and add any updates as needed, for the most part there is usually not many changes as major database changes typically only occur in “major” releases, so if Vanilla 3.x is out, there would be a high change some SQL changes would be in that release.
Grab the latest bbPress RC-5 zip from the downloads page https://bbpress.org/download
The “Specified key was too long” error you mentioned has been fixed in this release along with loads of importer improvements.
In reply to: Importing from Rainmaker; Topics’ post_parent = 0I’d still prefer to see the database schema, not data that’s already been parsed.
From what I can see you’ve got various issues with that WXR data:
ā¢
<wp:post_type><![CDATA[topic]]></wp:post_type><-topicshouldn’t be wrapped in![CDATA[/]], I’m not sure if that or any other instances apart from content will be affected by this.ā¢
_wp_page_templateshouldn’t be included, if thepost_typewaspage, then yes, buttopicpost type shouldn’t have a_wp_page_templatemeta key, again, I’ve no idea what the resultant behaviour of this would be, maybe ok, maybe not.ā¢ You have the following, which is correct:
1327is the “forum ID”`
<wp:postmeta>
<wp:meta_key><![CDATA[_bbp_forum_id]]></wp:meta_key>
<wp:meta_value><![CDATA[1327]]></wp:meta_value>
</wp:postmeta>
`ā¢ Just above the above, you have the following which is *not* correct,
post_parentis *not* “post meta”, this should be in thewp_poststable and *notwp_postmeta`
<wp:postmeta>
<wp:meta_key><![CDATA[post_parent]]></wp:meta_key>
<wp:meta_value><![CDATA[1327]]></wp:meta_value>
</wp:postmeta>
`ā¢ Closer to the top of your code you have
<wp:post_parent>0</wp:post_parent>, this is where thepost_parentshould include that1327forum id.I suspect if you can get
1327into that last item above you’ll be all set, or at least progressed somewhat, I’m pretty sure the repair tools will be able to recalculate the topic meta once that is in, so that’s another option to repair any meta issues.This might be a handy reference https://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description
Also checkout https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2516, the file attached to that ticket is a pretty comprehensive WXR XML file of forum, topics, and replies layed out per the description in that ticket, it might be worth importing into a test site to help visualise the data when looking at the source of the XML file š
In reply to: Importing from Rainmaker; Topics’ post_parent = 0Can you post the Rainmaker Database Schema somewhere? I’ll try and work it out for you
In reply to: Does bbPress work with Windows Server 2008 r2?The download issue was caused by wordpress.org migrated to new servers and a new data centre, and there were a few issues, they have switched back the affected servers I believe and this should be fixed.
If you continue to see errors please make a comment on this #meta ticket
https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3383
I’ll look into the anonymous posting issue for you, are you using bbPress 2.5 or 2.6?
I think this was fixed for bbPress 2.6, can you try using 2.6-RC-5, the download link is available on https://bbpress.org/download/
In reply to: Is Dropbox forums on bbPress?I’ve removed Dropbox from that list at https://bbpress.org/about/examples/
A couple of my fav’s are:
This site has some great customisations:
* https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/forum/general-issues/This, because Angry Birds š
* http://www.angrybirdsnest.com/forums/In reply to: Does bbPress work with Windows Server 2008 r2?Apologies @tesicg, I presumed you were using IIS because Windows 2008 Server R2 š
Ignore the IIS suggestion I made, you’re using XAMPP so they would be useless.
For translations check your WordPress updates page for any available translation updates, both bbPress 2.5.x (the current release) and upcoming 2.6.x releases are 100% translated into Russian: https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/ru/default/wp-plugins/bbpress
There might have been a fix for “port conflicts” in the upcoming bbPress 2.6, could you try that and see if it is fixed please? https://bbpress.org/download/
If 2.6 doesn’t fix it could you add details on whats different between your 2008 Server and Windows 7 install, strange that XAMPP works on one and not the other
In reply to: Does bbPress work with Windows Server 2008 r2?As long as you have the IIS Rewrite Module it should work fine, it’s the equivalent of Apaches
mod_rewritemodule, it’s been a while since I’ve looked at IIS but that’s the only issue I’m aware of for for bbPress and IIS.In reply to: End-user cheat sheet for using forums (code/smileys)Apologies, I missed that one, bbPress uses the same smileys as WordPress

@rblackfox You question why Robin even does it, if you had read the reply and to which he has every right to reply, and I’ve no issue with his reply, and he has mine and bbPress’ full support, Robin spends countless hours here on bbPress.org helping others and he pointed out why he does it in his reply:Iām just a guy who uses this software, and in turn spends some of my time in trying to help others.
You state you contribute to the larger community @rblackfox, yet your first interaction on any WordPress property is to criticise a others behaviour here, well you’re also no longer welcome here on bbPress.org, you’ll need to take your own advice from now on and use stackoverflow.
